Translational Quotient as an Innovative Outcome Parameter to Assess the Effectiveness of Training Methods: A Feasibility Study in Assessing the Baseline Psychiatric Skills of Primary Care Doctors in their Real-world Live Outpatient Clinic

The baseline scores indicate a pressing need for targeted psychiatric training to bridge the treatment gap in primary care. Future training programs should focus on enhancing diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient communication to improve mental healthcare outcomes in primary care settings.
